NAME
|
|
atan2 - angle to point
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
atan2(y, x, [,eps])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
y real
|
|
x real
|
|
eps nonzero real, defaults to epsilon()
|
|
|
|
return real
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
If x and y are not both zero, atan2(y, x, eps) returns, as a multiple of
|
|
eps with error less than abs(eps), the angle t such that
|
|
-pi < t <= pi and x = r * cos(t), y = r * sin(t), where
|
|
r > 0. Usually the error does not exceed abs(eps)/2.
|
|
|
|
Note that by convention, y is the first argument; if x > 0,
|
|
atan2(y, x) = atan(y/x).
|
|
|
|
To conform to the 4.3BSD ANSI/IEEE 754-1985 math lib, atan2(0,0)
|
|
returns 0.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
|
; print atan2(0,0), atan2(1,sqrt(3)), atan2(17,53,1e-100)
